The Ballad of Annie Moore

[Andy Howell]

As near as I get about an eloquent comment on the Donald.



The Ellis Island Immigration centre opened in 1892. By the time the centre closed in 1954 30 million migrants had been processed on the island. It is today estimated that a third of all US citizens can now trace themselves back — at least in part — to those who entered the country through Ellis Island.

Ellis Island represented a new era in global movement, an age that may now have come to an end.

The first person to be admitted through the centre, on the 1st January 1892, was a 17 year old young woman from Cork in the West of Ireland, Annie Moore. Annie was travelling with her two young brothers to join her parents who have travelled out in front.
